How much EXID LE earned on co-writing Trouble Maker songs?

[imienazwisko.livejournal.com]

EXID’s LE revealed that she participated in writing the lyrics for Trouble Maker.

During the January 15 broadcast of SBS Power FM’s Cultwo Show, EXID’s LE revealed that she participated in writing the lyrics for the unit group Trouble Maker’s Trouble Maker and Now.

LE said, “I participated in co-writing the lyrics for Trouble Maker’s songs, like Trouble Maker and Now. Three people split the royalties evenly.”

When DJ Cultwo commented, “I heard the royalty added up to an amount that was enough to purchase a car,” LE replied, “That’s right. When we split the royalty evenly, I was left with money enough to buy a car.”

What kind of sweet ride did she buy?



But that just shows that you get properly paid only when you (co-)write something.

LE is seriously talented and I look forward to listening to more of her composing/songwriting work.It's about time we had a female idol acknowledged for this shit too

It's strange how so many people in that post accepted the "they don't know anything about black people" argument when defending their faves from racism. Nowadays that shit doesn't even kind of fly. My how things change ever so quickly.

She's probably made more from Up Down now with composer credits as well.

[juhli.livejournal.com]

Does she usually write lyrics or is she also involved in the producing/composing process?

[askbask.livejournal.com]

She is for the last two exid singles.

[fabledlamb.livejournal.com]

For the majority of the 20+ songs she's worked on she's credited as the or one of the lyricists. My guess is she's mostly writing the rap parts. But afaik she's also composed or co-composed 3 songs so far, 2 for EXID (Every Night and Up & Down) and 1 for Boys Republic (Round, a track from their last mini album).

Damn, that's great. I love her rapping too, I just hope she learned not to say the n word.

[hitthoselightz.livejournal.com]

i hope that more idols start to write and compose their songs

everyone up here bringing up le's past but yall are forgetting soljis skin comment

[hyungmoney.livejournal.com]

ooo what did she say?

[hitthoselightz.livejournal.com]

they had a question about how to differentiate them and for le, solji straight away said "dark skin" and started laughing



at 7:46

:/ ugh

[lazmy.livejournal.com]

she didnt say anything derogatory. just that LE's skin was darker than everyone elses. it is. thats literally all she said.

[hyungmoney.livejournal.com]

she is one talented chick

[annhh.livejournal.com]

ehh I don't know, CO-writing lyrics just isn't really something I would applaud her.. I mean good job yes yes. but composing and arranging on the other hand is really something that needs a lot of prior knowledge and skills

[fabledlamb.livejournal.com]

Maybe those Trouble Maker tracks weren't the ones she had the chance to be the most involved in during her career. But making enough money to buy a car? At her age? While working in a girl group and doing stuff with/for other artists? I applaud her for that. It's a lot more than most other idols get to achieve after all, especially female ones and especially so early on in their careers.

And it looks like she's been working pretty hard to acquire the skills and knowledge needed for composing, with her becoming more involved in the whole studio process by writing AND composing songs for EXID and others now. It'll be interesting to hear what kind of sound she'll go for in the future and if she'll also get to work a little more independently from Shinsadong Tiger...

[senshicalico.livejournal.com]

she does that too, especially for EXID now.

[miwa201.livejournal.com]

she composes and arranges songs as well. but to be fair, gd gets so much praise but he usually gets a lot of help. i know that out of the 100+ songs he's credited to, maybe only 4 did he do completely on his own

[sub-divided.livejournal.com]

LE has some major ability to stand up for herself (or a mentor) if she got an EVEN split from writing the lyrics.

I think it's amazing that she's writing and even more amazing that she's getting credit and royalties from it.

im glad shes getting credit for the girls more need to come out with bangers they birthed themselves
